Final Fantasy (Famicom) Japanese Packaging / Box Art Translation

Final Fantasy (Famicom) (12.18.87)

The Famicom packaging of Final Fantasy is elegant, but rather minimalistic compared to the American cover with weapons, mysterious floating cities and proudly boasts how complex and rich the adventure is. I found the original Final Fantasy fascinating as a child, but had little grasp on how to play it. It wasn't until the more approachable Earthbound came around that I really got into JRPGs.

The Four Legendary Warriors have paid visit to the ancient town of Coneria, where they're made aware of their grand mission: They must embark on an adventure in order to return light to the crystals. An adventure that will have them wandering the mountains, seas and entire continent. Now...it begins!
